Romy Schneider is an intense destiny, a voice, freedom of speech ahead of time and fractures. The icon died in full glory, at the age of 43. The Cinémathèque française is dedicating an exhibition to him, which will open on March 16. Preview visit.

Sarah Biasini, daughter of Romy Schneider, lent some of her memories for the exhibition that the Cinémathèque française (Paris) is devoting to her mother. Huge actress and passionate woman, she disappeared when she was only 5 years old. “It’s heartbreaking, and she’s beautiful”she confides from the corridors of the exhibition.

Romy Schneider’s career begins with Sissi, an impetuous and amorous Austrian princess. “She spent her life trying to escape this character of Sissi, (…) who is also much more insolent than the image we keep, and also has the insolence of Romy Schneider”comments Clémentine Deroudille, curator of the exhibition.

His crazy passion with Alain Delon will mark his whole life. The actor has carefully kept a theater costume, which she wore when she started in France. She then seduced the greatest, from Visconti to Orson Welles via Claude Sautet, her favorite director. We find in the exhibition the notes that she sent him.
